This might sound stupid, but I would get the 2x2's with length to spare, bend them as you wish, then cut the excess ends off. Then there is no question if you get them the exact length to begin with?

So, Terry -- is this what you have in mind? (Sorry about the "coffin" comment - I was joking, but on reflection I realize it really wasn't too funny.) These pics are interesting, so now I get the idea of what you are talking about. The guy that drew these pictures said he wasn't actually sure it would work. You can see his comments on the website below. Diane P.S. I can hardly pedal a bicycle (at least yours is motorized) much less PULL a camper with one! |

Wouldn't sheet metal be easier to work with and lighter?

I doubt any of these could be pulled with a bicycle, but there are some pretty neat retro plans here for teardrop campers. One is even called the Camping Pod! See it below:

Mine IS more like a coffin. It isn't really a camper. Just a place to sleep out of the weather.
I know one guy that left Tampa with a little trailer for his dog, tent, sleeping bag etc. He headed NE for a couple of states then went to Chicago, across the top of the country to Oregon, down to southern CO, across the southern route and back to Tampa. Another guy left southern CA and rode to Alaska and back. I would NEVER do anything like that! I have considered going to New Orleans to visit a friend and then ride back. But I'm too much of a chicken!! The guy from Tampa was in his 20's, the other guy was 69! Terry |
